It's where I am hiding, for now at least. but beware PBW players, you never know when i might emerge from my haven and start wuppin hiney.
I did join the PBW site, and did read the Q&A. i am sure I will read it again, but am curious about a couple of general things. I am still tired, so if some of my ?s seem weird, I "default disclaimer" them all now. All questions refer to
un-modded games .
1. If I take over a position in a current game, do I have to use that current position's race file. And if no, is it fairly easy to find out about the race choices before making a commitment to the game?
2. I want to get more use to game mechanics. What are the typical galaxy and option settings. I want to make a race that is applicable to common steeings. IE, it does no good to design a race with 5k starting points, if most PBW games use 0 points.
3. Do most PBW players choose racial techs, or do they leave those for the AI to make it more challanging. (A PBW game that has no human player racial tech choices might be interesting). 3.1 Also what impact does "race experience" have on the game. (I have not tried too hard for a search on this yet, but asking the question might be easier than a long hunt for it).
4. OT: I hate "real player" because of it's practices. I have windows xp. Does that, or a different (free)program have the ability to play "real player" files? I tried to view a news article that was a real player file type, and couldn't without getting the RP dl, which requires a credit card. And if yes, where do I get that program or how do I use xp to do it. I don't know about such computer things.
gonna try and get some sleep again. laterz
